I phoned another painter I have probably spent £2.5k with over the years and he wouldn't even tell me the Ford white he used on one of my tanks. I reckon you could make a half decent job of the PBlue metallic with RS Bikepaint aerosol and Spraymax 2k in a can clear. Not a cheap source of materials I know but I know it will yield good results.Aerosols have come on so much in the past ten years. I followed RS's instructions to lay the metallic on and flash off with a powerful hairdryer. Dont get their water based in an aerosol though as the paint splutter on a couple of cans I have had and ruin what was destined to be a really good job. Ask for COB solvent based paint when you order.
Get your decals from Diego... I do.
